HIP NEW VIBE, SAME GREAT FOOD

Fans of downtown lunch breaks and dinner dates will be thrilled to learn that the world-renowned Marx Bros. is continuing its partnership with the Anchorage Museum as part of the expansion.

The new restaurant, Muse, has a hip, lounge vibe and offers seating for about 100 people. Muse features an outdoor patio with additional seating in summer. The restaurant uses fresh ingredients from the Pacific Northwest prepared with Asian and European flair to create imaginative and elegant cuisine. For nearly a decade, Frommer's Alaska travel guide has lauded the Anchorage Museum's café for offering "some of the best lunches to be had downtown."

The Marx Bros. has operated the museum's restaurant and catering since 1999 and operates a second restaurant in downtown Anchorage. The company continues exclusive catering of museum events. Established in 1978, Marx Bros. downtown location was one of just three Alaska restaurants to earn the AAA Four Diamond Award in 2008.
